Caligula:"As some people love to spread weird rumors about others, let me make this clear once and for all. I have not committed suicide, I have not taken an overdose, nor are there any personal issues between me and DARK FUNERAL. However, my life has taken a new turn lately, and I am also getting married this year (NOT to some crazy bitch in the U.S though… Hahaha), whereof my priorities in life lie somewhere else.I would like to take this opportunity to thank ALL of our fans for their amazing support during all the 15 years I've been with the band. And I would also like to thank my brothers in DARK FUNERAL for all these years together."

Lord Ahriman:"Caligula and I have shared some 15 kick-ass years together. And I would naturally like to thank my brother for the amazing work he has done for DARK FUNERAL over all these years. It's been a pleasure indeed working together. You will be missed deeply! But, as with everything else, I understand when people change course and get new priorities in life. And I fully respect that. Life moves on, after all, and so will DARK FUNERAL.In the meantime, and while we're searching for a new vocalist, the most logical thing for us to do, is obviously to enter writing mode. And that's exactly what we'll be doing."(källa: http://www.darkfuneral.se/)
